Please explain that to me, I'm going crazy just trying to figure it out!

Will be glad to!
the book we call Azbuka is for young learners. There are different syllables, Dad was intensively trying to make me know all of them - I didn't read - I kept all of them in my memory - so I wasn't reading at all! Dad was mad, I was crying - we gave it up till school. Then mummy noticed me reading titles of newspapers, lines on TV and other available words I could see, so parents say I did it on my own after months trying to read under dad's attentive eye

illusion wrote:Me too and I remember that it didn't last too long as I was able to read quite soon. I have always loved books. When I was little I would sleep with them in my bed and then read after waking up

So did I. I used to carry the English children textbook my sister had around the house. Late at night, I would ask my uncle to read it to me. I never got tired of it since I was amazed by the strange sounds my uncle made.

Well.. My dad began to teach me how to read Spanish at 4 and at the age of 7 I already knew how to read Spanish and English( I'm still studying for this last langauge)!! And novel?? a Venezuelan one called " Doña Barbara" at age of 10!! I've learned plenty of vocabulary reading.. That gives you food for thought

I went to school when I was 5.Maybe the next year,I began to read some fables or small stories.And reading becomes to one of my favorite hobbies from that time.But in that period I have few books to read except my school books.So my most reading books were borrowed from other people....

i guess i started reading when i was 4. mama's a librarian, so she would bring me to her office and let me read books.. she would always give me literature for children kinds of books as it had pictures on it.. and so it was more interesting to read ..
